Clients said tour was good and guide was nice. Guide learned a lot about Judaism to guide but not Jewish. More history vs anything about Jews in Prague today.

First, Prague is remarkable. Second, our wonderful guide Nikki was the perfect person to show it to us. The Jewish Quarter tour covers fascinating architecture, the history of the real estate, and the role that real estate played across the history of central and eastern Europe. We’ve had guides who recited history and guides who pointed out buildings. Nikki was able to bring it alive, putting both together telling a story better than any we’ve experienced. Her English was crystal clear and she helped us do some shopping in addition to providing enthralling histories, quickly making changes on the fly when she accurately sensed a break was needed. It was no tour by rote. My wife and I are only disappointed that we can’t rate her tour with a couple of extra stars. We used them all up with only 4. Thank you Project Exploration and Ms Nikki. We love Prague.
